Jeroen wanted to go back to Steak Kuni because he wanted to eat this
But last time, Mr. Kanno picked us up in a car.
This time, however, we didn't want to bother anyone, so we decided to commute.
The hotel staff printed maps and directions online, but on the way to Steak Kuni, I was distracted by things such as Tinsley Mortimer's clothing line called Riccimie that I didn't know existed. In Tagalog, "Mayaman Ako."
Passed by this wonderful food hall and wished I could just eat everything and not gain weight or throw up.
Just look at all this beautiful bread
I ate a small serving of salmon and roe on sushi rice while standing up
Then we went down Shibuya station to take the train to the Sumo town of Ryogoku
This is the home of Sumo wrestling and the Pepper Lunch head office.
Of course there is a Pepper Lunch under the train station—one of 200 outlets all over Japan.
Jeroen contemplated having a 300-gram steak here, but our goal was to find Steak Kuni.
After an hour and a half commute, we found it! Halleluia!
Steak Kuni is popular among Sumo wrestlers, as well as the restaurant below it
I just love the retro interiors. So Japanice!
So nice that the chef remembered us from our last visit
Jeroen ordered two kinds of steak
and ate both our salads
If soft-shell crab is on the menu, I'll take it
Et voila! This was one of our steaks. The other one I forgot to photograph.
We realized we didn't quite order what we went there for (see photo on top) but it was good enough for us.
